"My dear Bodex, since you left us, I can't help but continue to ponder about the reality of the fragile nature of life. Even up to the last moments, I was still in denial that the unthinkable will happen! I was still hoping that the miracle that we all have fervently prayed and expected will manifest and suddenly lifted you up from the sick bed! Little did I realize that I was just being human in my thoughts and expectations; and that the Almighty God's thought and plan is different from that of we humans. You're already being missed my dear friend and to know is forever is more painful. Your shout of Pooppson! My preysy! with radiating smile is already being missed! To think You wouldn't be able to travel to New York or play Table Tennis together again is really painful! My only hope is that we'll see one day again at Jesus feet. Omo Akin, Rest in eternal peace."
